Just trying to write a story. All rights go to GoRA.
An hour has passed since I left the hospital.
No one was near me when I woke up, but there was a banquet of fresh roses on my bed table with a note ''we miss you a lot!''. Probably a joined gift from Izumo and Seri. I got out of the bed and noticed another 'gift' – backpack and my clothes; underwear, black trousers, white shirt, hat, black jumper of course with black trainers. So I quickly put them on and ran off before any doctor could stop me.
And you know what?
I'm not happy where I am at all!
From the first sight I can tell I'm in Japan (probably Shizume), since everything is in Japanese and the environment looks familiar! Through the city itself looks changed; there are big TV screens everywhere, which are saying things that I can't understand…
-I swear I used to understand Japanese. What the hell happened here? – I started to cough and my throat felt really dry. I better not talk out loud for now…
Either way I need to find Izumo, Seri or anyone I know, there is no way I'm staying in hospital with all those doctors... I sat down on random bench and looked through the backpack that was left in hospital. I actually found something useful – an address and a phone.
-Looks like I have my destination.
*cough*
Damn…
The Special Task Force Unit Scepter 4 headquarters
Usually the clansmen were quietly working, but today was an unusual exception. Of course this kind of sudden change didn't go off without rumours.
-I heard that there will be some special people coming here today.
-Special people? Nah, I heard that it's a friend of captains.
-I heard that Miss Awashima knows them too.
-Maybe they are related?
-Or maybe you all should all get back to work, before I made you all do double shifts? – The only female in Scepter4. This cold voice was well known to belong to Awashima Seri, also known as 'Heartless woman'. She already knew what respond she'll get, but still waited for it. And the response came back in seconds.
-We're sorry mam!
-Just do your work instead of chatting. – Woman sighted.
-Mam, we got a report of one of our clansmen that Homra men are walking around the town!
-Are they doing anything suspicious?
-Well…no…
-Then why are you telling me this? Get back to work.
HOMRA Bar
The bar was unusually peaceful for the day. Well most of the clansmen were not in the bar at the moment which made a certain bartender feel a little relaxed. He finally had time just to sit down and think about his own business that he even doesn't tell his King about. Well he wasn't sure if Mikoto (who now was sleeping on a couch) would even care and either way there is no danger now since she's asleep. Well for now…
While Izumo was deep in thought Anna's attention was on her red marbles. Her eyes went wide as one of her lovely marbles started to spin and then suddenly it cracked. Her attention was now backing to Izumo, who now was talking on a phone about some bar orders. Soon he hung up and moved to his left where Mikoto was sleeping. The blond bartender shook the red king in order to wake him up.
-Mikoto-san
-Ughmmm…
-Mikoto. I need you to wake up now; I have to meet one of my beer dealers so I'll be out for an hour or so. Make sure that when the boys come back, they wouldn't destroy anything, ok?
-Ugh…
-I guess that is a yes. – Soon Izumo put on his jacket and said his goodbyes to Mikoto and Anna before he left.
As unlucky as it could be after couple of minutes the bar doors quickly opened sending cold air into the bar. Anna soon shivered which didn't pass the red kings eyes. The man slowly got up from his comfortable seat, walked to the other side of the bar and closed the door then came back to the same seat. Through even he's a king, Mikoto failed to notice a new guest in the bar. That certainly amused the little girl as Anna did a little chuckle.
-Did you just laugh?
But Anna only shook her head to say no.
